The Andhra Pradesh High Court has made key remarks on the conduct of Tenth and Intermediate board examinations in the state of Andhra Pradesh. The court, which was hearing the petitions seeking cancellation of the exams, made key remarks. While the government has announced that it is ready to conduct the exams, the High Court has directed the state government to reconsider the decision on the conduct of exams.
Opposition political parties called for the abolition of the exams in view of the spread of Covid among students and their parents but the government seems reluctant to cancel the exams. The court questioned the government on how you can conduct exams in the state while other states have already postponed. It adjourned the next hearing to May 3, ordering the counter-filing of the petitions.
